Enantiospecific synthesis of 6-methylheptadec-(9E)-enoic acid enantiomers, the antimicrobial principles of Sporothrix species
摘要:
An efficient synthesis of the title compound I in both its enantiomeric forms has been developed starting from (R)-citronellol. This involved the introduction of the required alkyl chain and the acidic component at the termini of the starting chiron via judicious derivatization of its bifunctionality to provide the enantiomers of I. The other key features of the synthesis were: (i) use of easily accessible and inexpensive materials/reagents; (ii) operational simplicity; and (iii) brevity. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd.
